Any ideas on Ann's father's name and surname please?

Rootles out resources!
It's a baptism of 1755. I know what I want it to read and what it has been transcribed as on FMP, but I'm not so sure. The second image is a snip out of the first image.

Well, it could read
Augst. 3 Ann Daughter of Richard Cole gent was baptized
but I'm not sure if the 'gent' is right, or if it is part of the surname.....:confused:

Thank you very much everyone. I see Richard too. As for the surname, it has been transcribed as Colegate, which is the name I'm looking for. But I just don't see it as that.:confused:
 
Presume this was at Swanscombe.
There is also a Mary Colgate bap.23 Oct 1753 same father, same place on Family Search.

I don't know if the last letter looks like an "h"? I looked at the "h" on some of the words and it looks the same. Or is that just my eyes......
